for those whose PN started in the nerve endings, watch out for this product. a nerve healing gel.
"A team of Tel Aviv University researchers has been working on a means to repair damaged peripheral nerves.
Why peripheral nerves? They are easily injured, or severed, during accidents or as part of disease pathologies and the results vary from lifetimes of pain, restricted mobility, or even paralysis.
Peripheral nerve damage is common among alcoholics, people with viral infections like Epstein-Barr, hepatitis C and HIV/AIDS, people with trauma from injuries, people with malignant or benign tumors, diabetics,and of course, people with neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease. Generally, many people may have some kind of peripheral nerve damage as these are the nerves that branch throughout the body to ensure messages are relayed from the brain to body parts like toes and fingers.
To treat the effects of nerve breakage, Drs. Rochkind and Nevo have created a Guiding Regeneration Gel (GRG) that can almost miraculously aid nerve growth and healing."
